Table Talk » Hit of the Day: Sweet Orange Salmon

Of the dishes that I made today, my favorite was Sweet Orange Salmon. The salmon is rubbed with a mixture of brown sugar, chili powder, orange zest, cumin, paprika, coriander, and black pepper. I let the salmon "marinate" with the rub for 30 minutes before broiling it. The sweet and spicy rub caramelized beautifully under the broiler. I paired the salmon with roasted sesame zucchini and yellow squash.
